The challenge has been met, what else you got?

Cindy here too. I'm pleased if I beat the younger guys. Age 37.

Wait all day to see the next workout. . .wait all night to rock it in the morning. Cindy it is!

Kyle - what an inspiration! Love the attitude - you definitely fit well into the CrossFit Family.

what an incredible video!

i'll be tearing up Cindy tomorrow.

INSPIRATIONAL!

Kyle you are awesome and an inspiration to us all! My 9 and 4 year old children just watched the video with me and were very impressed!

Fantastic Video. Thanks for the inspiration, Kyle.

I'm going to push myself to my limit tomorrow with "Cindy". It's true - I feel alive when I'm killing myself during a workout.

Sweet I was just thinking earlier about cindy.Me and my youngest son will be hitting cindy real hard tomorrow.

Can we do both girls?

Did I beat ackerman??

I've been CF-ing since April, and I've never done Cindy! Blaspphemy!

Great feature on Kyle, as well. I remember watching him years ago on features as the HS nose tackle making stops at the LOS with no extremities! Then later, I saw him wrestling!

Amazing. And inspring. I hope to meet this great young man someday.

I have to go with Mary, I've done Cindy 1 time, I have a feeling those pull ups are going to kill me

Kyle is my hero!

Perfect

going for 24 rounds on cindy

That motivates the hell out of me.

Kyle,
Simply inspiring. Great job bro!

anyone ever combined the 2??

Not able to get on a computer right now so I'll have to wait to watch the video. Bummer!

In a course right now that doesn't allow me the time or energy at the end of the day to do the WOD. Bummer! But it's worth it for now. Until next time Mary/Cindy.

CCTJoey- I'll call you back this weekend.

Get some, Go again!

too bad i just put crossfit on the shelf for 6 weeks of starting strength...

I think I am going to do Cindy for the first time it looks fun.

I think I am going to do Cindy its my first time it looks fun.

Holy crap. The person Kyle is not inspiring to does not have a pulse.

Where did you guys find Willie! He's not human, that's for certain!

Kyle is a stud!

Holy smokes on that King Kong... Willie is a stud too!

Comment #4 - Posted by: Pierre Auge

Amazing. I'm speechless!

I've met Willie, he's human! g

#13 Richard: 2 girls in one day? If you have the stamina, go for it. Sounds like fun.

I think it will be one of those things you regret in the morning.. 40 minutes of hard work is more than most men can handle.

Good luck! Let us know how it goes.

Willie is out of control. Strong Dude. :O

Kyle - In true DAWG fashion......that's the way to Hunker Down!

Cindy was my first WOD ever! Im psyched.

What about Mary 10 Minutes + Cindy 10 Minutes?

I'm going to do Cindy in the AM and Mary late PM. Should be fun.

Googled "Cindy","Crossfit","Rings" and found this: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YhXxdF5lcAc

Cool rings!

Kyle,
Respect is earned and you get ALL of mine! You deserve Crossfit, glad you found it. If you ever venture to Coronado,CA please stop in.

2 TOTALLY INSPIRATIONAL VIDEOS'S!!!
Kyle Maynard is a true inspiration and reveals that our limitations are mental. A big Crossfit shout out to you and an awe inspiring wake up call. You got all my respect.

#4 Willie Albert "King Kong" video

As if Maynard weren't enough, I clicked on the link and got the double whammy!

I'm speechless. I thought only "bigger guys" could be competitive with such heavy weights. But, you have given this 178# 37 yr old a dose of reality and a kick in the arse.

Limitations are in my mind only. I'm setting the goal to complete King Kong in the next 4 months.

#13 Richard
From someone who occasionally does 2 Crossfit WOD's in the same day, against the advice of my Crossfit trainer, I begrudgingly (yet humbly) offer the following advice.

If you do both consider Cindy first in the early am.

Rest/recover with a solid 1-2 hour nap mid day.
Hydrate like a dolphin.

Do Mary in the evening.

If you've been doing crossfit for more than 8-12 months you should be okay and conditioned enough and maybe be up for tomorrow's WOD. If your under 6 months, your just nieve to suggest this, let alone attempt this (can anyone here tell him what rhabdomyelosis is?).

These WOD's are sisters dude! If you think you can take out 2 sisters one right after the next...ha, you will understand the consequences of that decision.

You may be able to get away with it taking one in the morning and one in the evening. Either way, I'm pretty sure you will be "resting" tomorrow.

Good luck and shoot me an e-mail with the results 24-48 hours after you've completed it, hopefully you will not need to send the e-mail from the hospital. I've paid my dues doing 2 WOD's same day and have the battle scars to prove it.

I agree with AllisonNYC. Take it from a girl who knows crossfit, most guys "think" they have the stamina, but it's typically just ego and bravado.

Cindy popped my cherry. I get a tear when I think about her. Kyle you are the man! Truly an inspiration my friend.

Kyle- thanks for the inspiration. I work with disabled vets and well... enough others have said it. Major props to you!

Between Kyle in the main site video and the video response to "king kong" in comment #4 I am super pumped. I'm gonna kill both WODs!

Interesting. After nearly two months away from Crossfit and the site, I did a modified version of this last night as my third workout back in the loving arms of Crossfit -- without looking at the site (sketchy internet connection). I feel so much better today that I have in weeks.

I've been in Mozambique since the beginning of September on a six-month contract, and just haven't gotten into a groove yet: long hours, work on weekends, drinks with colleagues after work to talk about work, terrible diet. There are a couple of gyms in town, but that would require calling a taxi every time I want to go, and I regularly leave work at 7pm with no energy.

I discovered quite recently that the house I'm living in has a ledge from which I can do pullups and knees to elbows. The house also has three floors, so there are 20 stairs.

My first workout three days ago was at a small hotel "gym" in Swaziland: 50 squat cleans with, I think, 40 Kg, and Tabata sprints on a a rickety stationary bike. Second workout was 100 burpees in my house back in Mozambique. Didn't time it but, the last 30 really sucked, so I was happy.

Last night: ran up the 20 stairs and back down, then 5 pullups (difficult on the ledge), 10 pushups, and 15 squats. 20 minutes: 9 rounds. My fingertip grip on the ledge started failing in the final two rounds, which definitely made a difference, but I've also lost quite a bit of fitness in a short time. Before I left the States in August, my Cindy was 19 rounds.

In any event, very sorry for the long-winded post, but this week I've already been more productive, had more energy, and generally been in a better mood (even though I miss my wife like crazy). I just want to thank Crossfit (and inspiring Crossfitters like Kyle) for reminding me that I can adapt, I can be creative, and I can figure out how to fit Crossfit into my life. I'm going shopping this weekend; I'm sure I can buy dumbells and a jump rope.

And in the very unlikely event that there are any Crossfitters out there in Maputo, Mozambique, send me an email. Cheers.

not my best by 3 rnds but I'll take it comeing off of 1 hour of Muscle up pratice.

Could have done a little more, but lost time in the transitions getting into those rubber bands.

Went to the doctor for a flue shot two hours earlier. The doc asked me whether I'd planned something extreme today or if it was just an ordinary day. Since I do crossfit on 3 out of 4 days, I answered it's going to be an ordinary day and he gave me the shot.

First Date with Cindy.

Hi guys. Just started these workouts a few days ago. Very impressed! The FAQ page says that "squats" without any weight specification are to be done as "air squats." Is this correct, or am I to throw some weight on a bar and squat?

177lbs/6'1"/28

Cindy - 12 rounds, 5 pull-ups, 8 push-ups; felt strong, no pukey despite how hard I was pushing.

Last time was 13 rounds with knee push-ups (aka, "girl" push-ups, but having seen all the CFit chicas, I don't call 'em that anymore) on rounds 10 - 13 + pukey.

For these workouts you do air squats. Squats are air squats unless rx'ed otherwise. Welcome to crossfit and have fun!

just pulled my lower back badly after doing "Erin" this Saturday so I had to take this one a little more low key. I actually had to break up the pullups after round 5 which surprised me. I haven't done pisols in forever... my upper quads and hips were feeling it.

30/m/5'10"/215

Cindy as rx'd
14 rounds (pr)

As Rx'd -- first Cindy since we gave up squatting to (READ: bouncing off of) a 'butt-ball'

23 rounds + 5 pull +10 push + 13 squats

That is a PR by 11 squats. I think in reality it is a bigger PR as we stopped using 'butt-balls' for squatting for everyone who is able to squat below parallel. This increases the ROM a bit and makes the squats a bit tougher when going for fast reps.

Pushups were better today that all my prior Cindy's. After round 3 or 4 I broke them up as 6/4 then 6/2/2 toward the end. Squats were unbroken until ~round 14 then broken 11/4 for a quick breather. Pullups felt very strong today.

As Rx'd 23 Rounds- nice, steady pace with full ROM.

Billy did 16 Rounds Rx'd first time out with Cindy.

it has been some time since i've been able to post logsitall age group standings for for a good/bad reason. The traffic to logsitall was crushing my little shared server - and the page load times were sometimes longer than the workout times...When all seemed hopeless about 40 CF'ers suddenly pitched in and underwrote the cost to move logsitall.com to a high capacity dedicated server - and everything is now amazingly blazingly fast...

Our new capacity has let me create two interesting pages driven by the CF workouts logged into logsitall (about 45,000 workouts logged so far).

Hey, when you guys do these most sets in 20 minutes type work out, do you pace yourselves at all, like ration 1 minute per set, or just sprint it out and let the pain set in(even if it might mean less sets)?

A quick review of comments posted the last time this WOD was assigned reveal most folks select Cindy. For today's WOD this also seems to be the case, at least so far, and I too had initially selected Cindy.

It was then I realized that my choice of Cindy was merely an attempt at avoiding Mary.

This alone is probably a good reason for me to do Mary.

did 5 - 50lb assisted pull-ups palms in, the rest was as rx'd. push-ups were from the toes and i alternated between regular squats and wide stance squats.

this is only my second week and i paced myself a bit, but i liked this one

"Big Cindy" with a 20# vest:

20 rounds + 5 pullups, 10 pushups and 11 squats. Pullups were to base of neck ROM, pushups done off 2" blocks to make up for the vest thickness and squats just below parallel with full hip extension.

Feeling fatigued from yesterday's back squat/weighted pullup/full ROM HSPU workout - started breaking the pushups after round 6 and the squats were unpleasant.

Kyle is a true hero in the truest sense of the word. Gonna be tearing up Cindy today. 3-2-1 GO!!

Pierre,

Anthony did pretty awesome with King Kong...but of course he's never satisfied and wants to do it again. LOL! He's certain he can do better. ;)

Thank you Kyle...Respect!

RE: #119 Mark

Your rationale for Mary as WOD choice is spot on.

"It was then I realized that my choice of Cindy was merely an attempt at avoiding Mary"... "This alone is probably a good reason for me to do Mary"

Pierre,

I hit King Kong in 6:50 as rxd. Slow, I know. I weighed in at 168. The cleans were the most intimidating - 250 is 98% of my 1RM. But now that I know I can finish all 9 reps, I'm going to push the pace next attempt.

And thanks for the b-day wishes everyone! I'm old, but not as old as JODI! :D

Don't really like posting here BUT I just watched the full video of Kyle Maynard and have to comment.

For all the folks who like to post their complete thoughts on the WOD's (whoo, this is gonna hurt , Andrew you are a beast in your tarzan trunks, Susie K keep workin those dandy deadlifts etc, etc) for God's sake shut up.

Kyle claimed that he wishes to be viewed as 'normal' by everyone he meets HOWEVER, after watching his effort on the workout, he's way above normal in terms of effort and determination.

Shame on all you folks that moan!!

Do your very best, like this man does, post your times and then do something else other than whinge!!

Right I'm going to do Cindy (Mary sounds just too hard ;-))

Thanks for the props - most people probably don't know - but logsitall almost went under last month - my little shared server couldn't handle the volume... kind of out of the blue 40 Cf'ers pitched in and helped me move to a fast dedicated server which was a pretty awesome thing to have happen.

"Cindy" for me today. Second time hitting this WOD. I struggled on my first attempt. It was my first attempt at any of the "girls" and my kipping pull-up was in the early stages. Felt much better today. Could have definitely gone a little quicker, but wanted to make sure i didn't gas before beating my previous score of 15 rounds.

That is a PR for me! Worked out with a giant bada$$ marine at BCF, so that was certainly a motivator! I was sore as hell from doing a early morning WOD with Tattoo Nicky, handsome jack (known to the locals as "SSSSSssssuuuuuuper handsome Jack!, Bob, dizzle, Jeannie and a bunch of other bad bad bad a$$ Cfers! That was a fairwell WOD for Nick and the guys as they head back out to...where ever they are going! Such a pleasure to train these guys over the last two weeks! Not just a pleasure, but an honor! When these guys walk into your affiliate, know that it is time to work...and have a great flippin time! You will be missed, and we'll see you on your island in a few months ("f" yes we're coming!)
After that workout J and I went for PR's on DL. SHE, at 112lbs did 240lbs...a PR! Incredible! I stopped at 345lbs as my sciatic was lit up like bloody xmas lights!
More fun tonight at 4:30! See you then!

#166 Simon,
Some of the comments made by some people posting can be superfluous, but if they are to gauge how they did in their workout, why is it not OK to elaborate (slightly) on how that WOD went? If I get x result and feel terrible afterwards, documenting that for my next attempt at the workout is relevant to gauge my increase in skill or work capacity.

Wow, Huge gains for me! yeah!
last time I did this, I was doing Push ups to 90% and had to jump my last few pull ups. I reached 16 in 20 minutes.
Today, new PR. Did 17 rounds in 20 minutes. All kipping pull ups and Push ups all Chest to deck!The pull ups were my rest for sure. I can't believe I can say that now. Hurray for PR's!!

crossfit, and i must say, while being painful, it's
been great. I actually rush to my computer around
10pm (eastern) to find out what the WOD for the
next day will be. Between the inspirational articles

here on the posts, Crossfit is starting to feel like an
extended family to me. I even enjoy the BS posts that
get everyone riled up. Cheers.

Up-Armored Cindy:

LT: 13 rds + 5 p/u + 9 pu (PR from 12 rds)
Soto: 11 rds (no boots/helmet) (PR - 1st time)

We've been doing "Cindy sprints" as a warm-up. These are full-out intervals done in a descending pyramid w/ a partner. Goes like this:

3 rds (full sprint)
rest while partner does above
2 rds (full sprint)
rest while partner does above
1 rd (full sprint)
rest while partner does above

This is far more taxing than it sounds.

I can't believe I'm even posting this pathetic wod performance . . . but I believe I need to continue to contribute to the community, rather than just take by reading. And I gotta post my BADS as well as my GOODS, right?

8, yes, 8 rounds of Cindy. Dead hang pullups, though.

I seriously think I might have gotten as close as I could get to giving myself rhabdo as I could without the pretty urine colors. It was the GHD situps earlier in the week. I've never felt anything like it. And I've done them before. Can't . . . breathe . . . ack . . .

Oh well, 3 . . .2 . . .1 . . . GO!

Curious --> for those of you who performed Mary, how did you alternate the Pistols? Did you do 5L & 5R each round or do all 10 reps per round with one leg and alternate on the ensuing round?

Outside Magazine: November 08 Issue

Is it a slap in the face to CrossFit for the very much deserved comments made to the magazine last month? You decide for yourself... I'll be waiting for the Dave Castro response to this article.

Believe it or not, CrossFit was labeled in the same section as this:

THE HELL-ON-EARTH FITNESS PLAN (Watch a Video)

Yesterday I finally got in to see the orthopedic surgeon about my hip. It turns out its not stress fractures (or arthritis, the original suspected cause) its a labral tear. I've been spending the last three weeks trying not to move anything that might exert any stress on my femoral neck completely unnecessarily. I am now allowed to do anything that doesn't hurt (except run). So...

Cindy as RX'd: 20 rounds in 20:10

AHH! Exactly 10 seconds off my goal. After round 10, pushups became sluggish and had to partition 5-5. PUs and squats no problem. In exactly a week I'll be on vacation to London and Oslo for 10 days, so I see myself doing lots of tabatas for lack of any equipment, so maybe that'll help my pushups. :P I feel like I could have squeezed in at least a couple more rounds if it weren't for that tricep fatigue.

Incidentally, damn, just doing that relatively light snatch balance yesterday after Grace got me pretty good. Shoulders are a bit sore from getting stretched out, but what suprised me is my lats were particularly sore (I assume because they are more heavily recruited in that wide-grip overhead lockout). Didn't seem to have any affect on the WOD today, but I woke up at least a few times last night because I rolled right onto those sore muscles. All the more evidence showing how good snatch balance must be for me :).

Take care!

I guess it's about time Mary and I tango for the first time. The first Crossfit workout of my life was Cindy and I always gaged much of my progress on her at the same time avoiding Mary.

Not sure whether or not anybody got 30+ on Cindy but those guys were close...

#92 Fran and Cindy??? I'm not gonna say it ;-)

I decided to do Cindy with a 40# weighted vest on...got 20 rounds in 20 minutes. Male, 26 years old, 190 lbs without vest/230 lbs with vest. It was a struggle to keep form that last round!

Good job everyone!

back after 3 weeks off...felt good to get in there today, i really missed it. I did 4 weeks of rehab, after I hurt my back last month. only did 7 rounds in 10 minutes, didn't want to push it too hard. Surprisingly, I felt more winded than I thought I would. 3 weeks of not crossfitting is a LONG time. But I will get back to my old form, just don't want to push it too hard and re-injure myself.

Handstand Practise - 10 minutes - some good holds, but nothing crazy.

Overall I felt pretty good. Deadlifts were smooth, but speed was lower than expected, probably a result of king kong. I wanted to keep the metcon short as it's been a long week, so I only did 10 rounds of cindy. For the guys hitting 40+ rounds on cindy at that pace, I don't know how you do it!

did this in my dorm room...did pull-ups by holding onto handles of over head cabinets. When I do this my arms aren't locked into a single position since they're holding onto swinging doors so I'm not sure if pull-ups this way are easier or harder than on a straight bar where my arms wouldn't be able to move while doing them. Either way good work out, my first Cindy.

Ah, this was my very first WOD back in March. I couldn't move my arms for about three weeks as I was so out of shape. In fact, it wasn't until July that I started with CrossFit full time after that experience! I have no idea how many rounds I did then, but I remember the thought that I might die, and that was with jumping PU.

15 rounds + 5 PU, 10 Push Ups, and 8 squats.

PU were fairly strict for first 10 rounds or so. Mixed in some kipping after that. Also, somewhere in there I suppose some of my push-ups were not quite to the deck if I am being fair.

14 rounds + 5 Pull-ups + 9 Push-ups

Less than last time but last time I was new to CrossFit and probably did not have the range of motion to count most reps back then. This is a true number. Pull-ups and squats unbroken weak on Push-ups.
